Introducing Controllr
For decades, the construction industry has relied on accounting software that felt foreign. Software that seemed to speak a language different from the one spoken on the job site or in the back office.
Why? Because the truth is, most of the existing construction accounting platforms were not built with construction in mind, or by people who ever wore a hard hat, tracked retainage, or agonized over a Work-in-Progress (WIP) report. They were built by software opportunists…people who saw a gap in the market and were only interested in taking from the industry, not truly contributing to it.
The problem with Opportunistic Software
You know the pain. You’ve used the software.
You spend hours trying to force a square-peg construction reality into a round-hole software model.
Critical features like intelligent job costing, real WIP accounting features (not just a job-cost report), and cash position and working capital reporting are afterthoughts, bolted-on, or simply missing.
The developers still don't understand the difference between percentage of completion and completed contract method…and the truth is that most builders don't either. That's why they need super intelligent software built by industry veterans to help them get the numbers right.
These platforms are built by outsiders looking in, trying to capitalize on a lucrative industry they don't understand. Their goal is to sell a product and move on; their focus is on the quick transaction, not the long-term success of the builder or the accountant.
Controllr: Our Foundation is Experience
We know your pain because we've lived it. For almost two decades, the team behind Controllr has been on the front lines:
As Builders: Managing projects, dealing with subs, and understanding the financial implications of every pour, every delay, and every unexpected scope creep.
As Construction Accountants: Wrestling with the existing, clunky software, manually manipulating spreadsheets, and grinding for answers that should have been accessible with a few clicks.
We watched others struggle and get frustrated. We saw good companies lose money because their accounting platform couldn't keep up with their operations. We realized we had the answers all along, forged in hard experience of real-world construction finance.
That's why we built Controllr.
Controllr is software built by builders and construction accountants, for builders and construction accountants.
